“Kurt Cobain: Montage Of Heck” director Brett Morgen has revealed the new documentary about the late Nirvana frontman will debut in three US cities in advance of its premiere on cable channel HBO on May 4.

“4/24 Montage of Heck will open in Los Angeles, Seattle, and New York City,” tweeted Morgen, who oversaw the project with executive producer – and Cobain’s daughter – Frances Bean.

Morgen has also announced a series of international cinema debuts, including Germany, Austria and Switzerland (April 9), the UK (April 10), Sweden (April 27), Italy, Australia and New Zealand (April 30).

“Kurt Cobain: Montage Of Heck” is billed as a raw and visceral journey through the singer’s life, providing no-holds-barred access to his archives, including never-before-seen home movies, recordings, artwork, photography, journals, demos, personal archives, family archives and songbooks.
